The smart toilet era is here. Are you ready to share your analprint w/ big tech?
- jelliclesfarm 5y agoWhy not? If everyone pooped twice a day and kept an eye on stool colour, we’d have more control over our health.
- twofornone 5y agoIt would not surprise me if dietary choices produced unique signatures in fecal properties which could then be used to infer all manner of identifying information - e.g. you could probably with high certainty guess ethnicity, religion, and/or political alignment from fecal signatures. That's not to say the standard big data risk doesn't outweigh the benefit, but I'm just pointing out that there is potentially some risk if we allow faceless megacorps (and/or government bodies, directly or indirectly) to siphon up our poo-PII.
